Changing byline
-
My name was displayed at the top of each post this way: “by theresamoritz”. I wanted to change it to “by Theresa Moritz.” I tried changing the content of “How I want my name to be publicly displayed” from “theresamoritz” to “Theresa Moritz”. Two problems: 1, I tried several times, once yesterday and once today, to update my profile, but most of the time I got a message that said I had to refresh the page and try again. When I finally got the update, however, the “by theresamoritz” had disappeared altogether and been replaced by the date. What should I do?
Theresa Moritz
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

This topic is about Twenty Twelve, but the discussion is interesting. Manifest might be one of the “improved” themes.

Thanks for answering. No, I did not change themes recently. I’m the only contributor to the blog. I wondered if perhaps Manifest had been changed, which might account for the disappearance of the byline and what I think is a replacement, a bar with the date.

I see your author byline here http://apaintinginthelouvre.wordpress.com/2013/06/17/how-to-recognize-a-saint/

Curiouser and curiouser. When I use the URL you provided, timethief, I see the byline too, and also the line above the byline doesn’t contain a date, but when I sign in and then open the blog, I get the page without the byline and with the date in the line.

If you see the same changes on the live demo theme here http://manifestdemo.wordpress.com/ then Staff are making or have made changes to the template.
Post formats types may also be a factor in the display change.

Thanks. I went to the live demo theme for Manifest, and the byline was gone. Would the different results we got when opening the blog be caused by a change in updating the theme?
I looked at the information about post formats, but I don’t think they apply, since the byline, as far as I can tell, was a part of the Manifest default rather than created by me in what I did with individual posts.
What does it mean to call a topic about Twenty Twelve?
